European digital rights nonprofit noyb sues Scale AI for ‘invasive’ worker surveillance

European digital rights nonprofit noyb has filed a lawsuit against Scale artificial intelligence (AI) alleging the platform conducts invasive worker surveillance by recording freelancers' mouse clicks and keystrokes at frequent intervals. The organization claims the collected data can be reconstructed into video documentation of a freelancer's entire workday.

Why it matters: Freelancers and gig workers using Scale AI face potential privacy violations and detailed activity tracking; practitioners managing contractor security policies and vendor risk should review surveillance practices and employee monitoring obligations in relevant jurisdictions.
